Comparison of the Bioavailability of Metformin Between Medium Dose Linagliptin/Metformin Tablets and Medium Dose Glucophage Tablet Given With Linagliptin Tablet

February 27, 2014 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim

A Single Dose Comparative Bioavailability Study of Linagliptin/Metformin hydrochloride2.5mg/500mg Combination Tablets Versus Linagliptin 2.5mg Tablets Administered With Glucophage 500mg Tablets Under Fasting Conditions

The data from this study will be used to compare the kinetic profile of metformin 500mg in linagliptin/metformin fixed dose combination tablet versus Canadian metformin reference product administered concomitantly with linagliptin 2.5 mg tablet.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
Time Frame: Prior to drug administration and at 0.33, 0.67, 1, 1.33, 1.67, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 30, and 36 hours post dose in each treatment period
Maximum measured concentration of metformin in plasma, per period.
Prior to drug administration and at 0.33, 0.67, 1, 1.33, 1.67, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 30, and 36 hours post dose in each treatment period
Area Under the Curve 0 to Last Measurable Value (AUC0-t)
Time Frame: Prior to drug administration and at 0.33, 0.67, 1, 1.33, 1.67, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 30, and 36 hours post dose in each treatment period
AUC0-t is the area under the concentration versus time curve of metformin in plasma, from time zero (0) to the time of the last measurable analyte concentration (t), as calculated by the linear trapezoidal method.
Prior to drug administration and at 0.33, 0.67, 1, 1.33, 1.67, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 30, and 36 hours post dose in each treatment period

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Area Under the Curve 0 to Inf (AUC0-inf)
Time Frame: Prior to drug administration and at 0.33, 0.67, 1, 1.33, 1.67, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 30, and 36 hours post dose in each treatment period
AUC0-inf is the area under the concentration versus time curve of metformin in plasma from time zero extrapolated to infinity.
Prior to drug administration and at 0.33, 0.67, 1, 1.33, 1.67, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 30, and 36 hours post dose in each treatment period
